Men's singles big names, Chen Long, Chou Tien Chen were pushed into the limit by their younger rivals, Lee Zii Jia and Lu Guang Zu respectively, losing concentration in second game, producing unforced errors and passive at the moment before turn back to positive play at deciding game. Meanwhile home darlings Anders Antonsen and Viktor Axelsen progressing with slightly different fashion, Antonsen vanquished former champion the lacklustre Kidambi Srikanth, 21-14 / 21-18 while 2017 World Champion Axelsen who's still trying to find his best, battling hard to edge out the resilient Kenta Nishimoto with identical scoreline, 21-19 / 21-19. In women's singles, three consecutive first round exit for last year beaten finalist Saina Nehwal, couldn't pass the in-form Sayaka Takahashi here despite saved four match points, 16-20 but lost the tie 21-23 at the end. Another seeded players in the fray, Chen Yufei, Tai Tzu Ying pocketing relatively easy victory also Ratchanok Intanon enjoys free ticket due to her opponent Mia Blichfeldt gave walkover, complained about low back pain at 01.00pm (local time) as stated on BWF news. Three China men's doubles pairs had been ousted simultaneously yesterday signalling their development is stuck, far from impressive in this category. Two INA and JPN leading combinations march on into second round, the most anticipated clash today is All England final rematch between Ahsan/Setiawan and Malaysia rising stars Aaron Chia/Soh WY. LIVE TV COVERAGE
China MD now under new coaches (korean Kang Kyung-jin & Yoo Yong-sung), so probably need some time to adapt.
Whoops choi/seo lost to kamson again. don't know why minions kept struggling playing this korean pair while kamson beat them pretty comfortably, and to think that minions and kamson has similar playing style..
so at this stage KOR has 4 reps for WD while JPN has 3... be interesting how tomorrow goes... edit: CHN has 4 reps too hehehe
According to previous Super 750 tournaments, LIVE TV coverage is limited for 10 matches, don't know whether there's any amendment between BWF and Infront Sport.
Yes, as confirmed by BWF commentator Morten Frost just now BWF Youtube : Tang CM/Tse YS (HKG) v Goh SH/Shevon Lai (MAS)
They will produce from and broadcast all matches on court 1 on Danish TV. That much I can assure you. (And the the last two matches feature Danish players so guessing the answer here should not be difficult )
U get the initiative during the first 3 shots. The 3 shots during the start of a rally dictates which side will be defending and which side will be attacking. This was always the indonesians style of play. Sent from my Redmi Note 7 using Tapatalk
